I just watched Poor Things

[PuppyMonkey]

Load of bollocks.

Hated it.

i’m a bit angry actually. Why are people saying this is a good film? Baffling.

I couldn't finish it.
Got to the apple scene and switched it off. Found it too disturbing.
Only other movie that had the same effect on me was the color Purple

Is this on Netflix ?

I watched it today too, it was a lot better than I expected it to be. Very interesting premise for a film.

Disney.

Very interesting in that it was all a load of shite that had had Oscar nominations for a crap story with terrible acting and horrid storyline.

I felt the same about Oppenheimer, turned it off. Watched a documentary on YouTube about him, much better.

I thought it was…interesting! Not sure it was Oscar worthy though, and I’m not sure I’ll ever unsee Skeeter and the Hulk having (lots of) sex.

I'm not sure if I want to watch it or not

Lots of really poor movies around at the moment.

Watched it with DP who seemed to be engrossed so I didn’t want to just turn it off as I should have. In hindsight I should have just left the room and done something else and left him to it. It went on sooooo long too. Hours and hours of pretentious twattery.

@PuppyMonkey what did dp think of it? I'm not asking that in oooh let's get the menz opinion, just wondered if another person liked it!

@SheepAndSword I don’t think he hated it as much as me, he just thought it was weird but didn’t seem as mortally wounded as me.

I hated it! Just weird
I think Emma Stone plays basically the same character in whatever she's in, I find she spoils films for me. (Though I just hated this fully not because of her)

I also watched it last night. I enjoyed it. It was so weird and a bit disturbing though.

I thought Emma Stone was good. I like her TBF.

I watched it and enjoyed it. I liked the idea of a woman who hadn't had the social conditioning we've had just doing exactly what she felt like. It was quite original and funny in places and also visually appealing (I don't mean all the sex but the locations). DH didn't like it and said I always like things that are zany.

I’m glad some of you enjoyed it anyway you weirdos..

I really enjoyed it

Agree OP, completely over hyped and really disturbing with the whole her baby’s brain in her head thing, eew. Way too much sex. I also find Emma a bit dull now. I loved The Favourite but she does just seem to play the same character or play them the same way.

Just googled it and had a quick browse on Disney. Fucked up!

I agree, thought it was terrible! Weird, disturbing and boring at the same time. Didn't finish it either.

Weird, disturbing and boring at the same time.

Exactly this. I remember looking at the clock at one point and thinking oh Christ it’s only been on an hour, I’ve got another hour and a bit to go. Should have just left the room.

I watched 20 minutes of it and had to turn it off. I found the score really unsettling and the whole thing just weird, not enjoyable at all. My dog wasn't enjoying it either, the 'music' was really stressing him out.
